To permit reuse of shipping boxes and shipping holders for elongated articles having a transverse flange, particularly automotive-type halogen lamps, a stackable carrier plate (1) is formed with article receptors (2) which each include an engagement surface (4) which is tilted by an acuate angle ((alpha)) of, for example, about 13 degrees with respect to the major plane of the plate. The engagement surface is apertured so that the articles can hang at the receptors, with the flange engaging the engagement surface, the angle being selected to place the elongated portion (3b, 3e) of the articles below the plate between the elongated portion (3d) of the article which is above the engagement surface of a lower plate (1') in the stack. This permits spacing the plates above each other at a distance which is less than the length of the articles, for example by providing spacing ribs or walls, preferably fitting into depressions formed at a next adjacent upper or lower plate, and so arranged that the plates can be placed in stacked position above each other only in a unique orientation to provide for placement of the articles in adjacent stacked plates in non-interfering positions. Depending hold-down projections (7) are formed on the lower side of the plates to engage the upper side of the flange of a plate therebelow to ensure positive holding of the plates.
